Do You Need a Guru?

Has the process of evolution essentially ended for humans, or do we as a species still have room to grow? If evolution is still happening for the human race, what form is it taking?

What Is Our Purpose?

Many people go through their daily routines of work, home, and weekend plans without a thought to much else. Their world consists of personal goals and seeking what little happiness they can find within the scope of their own life.
